How present were you with yourself and surroundings yesterday? When we purposely choose to make contact with the present moment, we offer ourselves a way to be fluid with the world and with ourselves, versus nailing ourselves down to the contents of our thoughts and feelings. Building a mindfulness practice that lasts starts by simply remembering to remember to make contact with what is presently happening.

Tune in, and learn how to make contact.
